Morning.

I'm here but won't be around a lot after mid to late morning here. I'll be going with Hubby to run errands and we have an appointment this afternoon... We'll be picking the little guy up from school too. I'm not sure what time I'll be back and if I do come back, I'm not sure what time it will be or how long I'll be around. Depends on how tired I am.

Thanksgiving dinner was a hit. Son didn't eat, that child inhaled the chicken... So much that I don't have much leftovers wise! There was enough left for him to take some to school for his lunch today but not much more than that. It was a lot of work for me to get things done all at the same time but it was worth it to see how much the guys liked it!

I've been told the next time I roast chicken, whole or pieces, that I'll be making a "rack" of carrots and onions under it again. Hubby liked it so much he was bragging to his mother and his American relatives on the phone about that and some of them may try that idea too. I got the idea to do it off a cooking show... And it turned out better than I had hoped. LOL

Anyway I'm here for a few hours... Time for coffee, catch up and finishing off getting Son ready for school.

RT, I know what you mean too... Most of the time that I'm on here in the early mornings, no one is around... I'm generally online around 4 a.m. your time, or at 6 a.m. my time, which is VERY early for a lot of our members. LOL

I'll be online but idle by times now. We're leaving in about an hour to two hours and I want my hair to be DRY when I go outside... It's COLD out there!!!  Smiley

We're leaving in a couple of minutes so I'm shutting downt the computer and getting my things together. Not sure if I'll be back or not, depends on what's happening here and how tired I am.

Have a great day everyone. See y'all later. Cheesy

Morning.
I'm here now and plan to be online for the next fourteen hours or so although I might drop off the "online" list if I get busy with proofreading.

One year ago today, we went to Martinsville's Fall Foliage Festival Parade and came home with a couple of little cutie kittens much to the consternation of the War Queen and the boycats.

Happy Found Day, Warrior Princess and Danger Princess!

We're back. Son and I had a blast with his paternal grandmother and uncle even though we were only there half an hour!

I'm around for now between dishes, helping Hubby with stuff and taking care of Son. I don't think I'll be getting much done on NR today because of how wonky things are today.

It's loading now... Will download shortly and start playing around with fonts. Cheesy

GORGEOUS!!

I'll see what I can do to take out any imperfections too. Wink

Good enough. I busted my tail over that and I'm glad it came out as well as it did.

I like it! I hope Book 2's cover comes out as good! (My BIL and I will be doing that one together, he's a much better photographer than I am! LOL)

I'm now going to do the precision work on getting any imperfections out... I've already started and am making good progress. Cheesy It'll keep me out of trouble for at least a couple of hours!  Smiley

(The more this girl stays out of trouble, the better for the world... I blow less things up when I'm busy!  Smiley)

I'm done the precision work and cleaning up the background of the photo... I'm now trying to figure out just the right font, font size and color for the cover.

Penth has a copy of the "updated" background. So that much is done.

Time to go back to playing in GIMP. This is giving me a break from NR, a NEEDED one! I've been going crazy with the writing lately and a break while doing something creative will help keep the juices flowing while giving the brain a rest. Cheesy

I have to do that sometimes or I begin to get burned out. I don't want that 'cause I've got more books to write!

So far, J has made a complete turnaround.  He's gone from a man whose mood cycled at random multiple times a day to a man whose mood has stayed even for the last five days in a row.

I'm amazed, and so proud of him.

I'm getting ideas for the synopsis of NR for the "back" of the book or on the site it'll be published on, whatever way I wind up going with it when the time comes...

If I write it up soon, I may post it for my writing pals in FB.

He told me a couple days ago that the moment he started walking down the stairs when he got kicked out, he realized just how bad he messed up, and suddenly had the realization that there was no longer any point in getting mad about anything.  Getting mad didn't really do him any good at all, so he just literally stopped.

In the two weeks that he was gone, he missed me so much, that when he saw me finally, he had tears in his eyes, and his voice choked up.  He said he'd never known he could miss someone so much, and that he really had thought he'd lost me forever.

He nearly did and he would have if you hadn't believed in the two of you so much.

I'll be starting a new What's Happenin'? thread directly. I have the title and everything ready. Watch for it!

ETA: New thread is up and locking this one.
